[Video]---Morning of December 14th. [OPEN TO ALL]

[Trunks rarely makes public videos--usually he's more likely to respond. He also doesn't look at all happy--but is keeping himself composed at least.]


Caireen's temple has vanished. Mai is gone.

[There's a pause, and a slow blink.]

I think she was worried this would happen at some point, as she left a note.

You can stay there for free as long as you like. I have Amaterasu covering the bill. [WENDY, NO] I mean, if you want to help clean up the place, or help feed the chickens, that's fine, too, but it's not required.

Shinki are welcome there, and since godless ones are the most vulnerable, it'd be cruel to force you to do things, right?

[light_of_willpower]

Are we more vulnerable? I mean, I didn't think just anybody could name us...

[It's not a comforting thought.]

I wouldn't feel right, staying and not helping out some.

[nopixiedust]

[Oh boy, bad news]

Technically.... Anybody can just name us. Apparently there was a problem with that a little while back. But, more importantly, shinki need a name to draw a borderline or do magic. Combined with the fact that ayakashi like eating dead souls like us....

Well. It can be a problem, especially for people who don't have weird magic powers.

[light_of_willpower]

[That makes the frown more prominent.]

No I can see that. I'm not as limited without the borderline or shinki magic, but I definitely see the weaknesses of this system.

[That said, he also has at least one other thought, but he needs to let it become more solid, before bringing it up.]

[nopixiedust]

Mm, yeah. Besides, even with powers, shinki have to take a break sometime, right? [Wendy is.... pretty sure they still need to sleep, after all. She thinks. It's not like she's studied this.] So the Sanctuary is good for everyone.

[light_of_willpower]

No, you're absolutely correct. I definitely do appreciate the place to stay, and will help out with what I can while I'm there too. Thank you.

[nopixiedust]

I'm sure the chickens will be glad to see a new face. They seem to enjoy the sanctuary more than anyone.

[light_of_willpower]

....if they're the chickens I've heard about that used to belong to Sharak, then I'm amazed they don't run the place yet.

[There is a small hint of humor. It's...nice, even if overall he's still sad.]

But I appreciate it all the same.

[nopixiedust]

Never met her! But I think they're Amaterasu's.

....Probably. They were here when I got here.
